Very good review indeed. Something else I would include is that successful custom CRMs need as much planning as developing. It may be useful to map out your sales process, users, workflow, reporting requirements and integrations (with ERP, accounting, emails, telephone systems, payment systems, etc.) before even starting coding your CRM. This will help you avoid costly modifications in the middle of your project.

Other features I would include as absolutely necessary are the following ones:

* Access control and security
* Workflow automation and notifications
* Customized dashboards and real-time reporting
* API-driven architecture for better integration capabilities
* Mobile responsive interface
* Design scalability for future expansion

And finally, remember not to forget about your users' training and CRM support after its launch. No matter how good CRM you develop, it won't bring you all its benefits without proper user adoption and maintenance in the face of business process evolution.

A custom CRM can be really useful when the business has processes that don’t fit well into an off-the-shelf system. I think the key is to focus on the actual workflow rather than trying to add every possible feature.

For example, contact and lead management, sales pipeline tracking, task/reminder management, reporting, integrations, and proper user roles are usually more important than having a huge list of features.

I’d also recommend planning scalability, data security, backups, and mobile accessibility from the beginning. A simple CRM that matches the team’s workflow is often more effective than an overly complex system with features nobody uses.
